Li Ruihuan from Shijiazhuang City has been missing for over 4 years
Liu Ruihuan, female, in her 60's, is from Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province. Her address is 42-5-301, the Huaxing Neighborhood. On January 13, 2002, she went to Beijing to appeal on behalf of Falun Gong. The police arrested and severely beat her and placed her in the Fengtai Detention Center. Her whereabouts is unknown.
Anshan Detention Center in Liaoning Province used to imprison many practitioners who refused to tell their names, who are now missing
On December 8, 2000, I went to Tiananmen Square in Beijing to appeal. After unfolding a banner, the police arrested and locked me up inside a police car, where I was brutally beaten. After that, I was escorted to a large room in the basement of the local Tiananmen Police Station. About 100 practitioners were present. The police said that they could arrest more than 1,000 practitioners daily. Afterwards, the practitioners were taken away by agents from various local police stations.
I was interrogated by police from the Tianqiao Police Station for 24 hours. Then I was transferred to the Congwen Police Station in Beijing. There they detained even more practitioners. In the evenings, the cell floors were full of sleeping people. About two weeks later, we were put into several buses. Each one of us had an armed police officer standing right beside us.
Our bus took us to the Tangshan City Police Department, and that same night I was sent to the Fengrun County Detention Center. Since the police at the Tiananmen Square beat me and caused me internal injuries and blood in my urine, I told them my address. The local police came to take me back. There were two fellow practitioners with a northeastern accent holding a hunger strike at the Fengrun County Detention Center, and I don't know where they were sent.
To resist the persecution, the Falun Gong practitioners who went to Beijing refused to tell their names and addresses to the authorities at the time. Therefore, the local liaison offices in Beijing and practitioners' family members often went to the detention centers in Beijing to look for those they knew. Once they found the practitioners from their local areas, the practitioners would be brutally beaten. Local police took those practitioners back to their hometowns. Then the practitioners would be subjected to even more severe persecution.
However, the whereabouts of those practitioners who refused to tell their names is unknown.
A female practitioner who lives next door to us did not tell her name. They detained her in the Tuanhe Labor Camp in Beijing for a year. A practitioner who went to Beijing with me was locked up at the Anshan Detention Center in Liaoning Province. Because she later had high blood pressure and was about to die, she told her name and address and was taken home. She told me that there were still many practitioners at the Anshan Detention Center who did not tell their names. We do not know their current circumstances, or if any of them have been transferred to the Sujiatun Concentration Camp and murdered.
Looking for the whereabouts of practitioners Liu Bogang and Liu Lijun from Qiqihar City
Practitioners Liu Bogang and Yang Lijun (female) from Fularji District in Qiqihar City were arrested on December 7, 2004. One practitioner had seen Liu Bogang at the Fularji Detention Center. Someone also called Liu Bogang's home, asking his family members to send money to Liu Bogang. In addition, Yang Lijun's ex-husband told her current husband that both Liu Bogang and Yang Lijun had been sentenced to prison terms. In about September 2005, Liu Bogang's wife went to the Fularji Detention Center to get information about Liu. She was told that the detention center was under renovation and Liu had been transferred to the Qiqihar City Detention Center. It has been over a year since then, and none of the family members of the two have been able to find or see them.
